    I had a Yakima last week and was disappoionted as it seemed to be full of diacetyl. I think I am quite sensative to this. I know they made 3 experimental batches with 3 different yeasts, and have settled on 1 for future batches. Hopefully not the one used in the batch I tried. Looking forward to trying the next batch!!

    Well mine was pretty good, I think it was the batch with the english yeast. I have a bottle in the firdge hoping it will be as good!

    When did Le Castor Yakima IPA become rare? I see it available all over Gatineau.

    Being on the south shore, i guess they get less than Montreal because it was sold out at a few places. I heard there's more coming in though so i'll stock up :slight_smile:

    I have to revive this after having another (or 2) of the Yakima. Excellent IPA. Might bump 1 from my top 5 but who's really counting...I am happy they settled on the recipe they did, because I believe this might be the best packaged IPA in Quebec. Too bad I find all these bombers in Quebec to be a little overpriced.

    I have to name more than 5, sorry.

    St-Ambroise Russian Imperial Stout

    Bilboquet Corriveau Imperial Stout

    Dunham - Leo's Early Breakfast IPA

    Dieu du Ciel - Immoralité, Herbe a Détourne, Solstice d'Hiver, Péché Mortel ...and many more. Gotta mention Aphrodisiaque and Rosée d'Hibiscus. DDC's beers are dirt cheap here near Montreal and I always have over a hundred beers from them, mostly because I stock on their good beers they make once a year.
